CentOS Stream: Why It’s Awesome
- Proven 6y agoWe'll see if CentOS replacement projects survive. If they do, these changes aren't necessarily as awesome as author thinks. While the new approach looks good (benefits mentioned in the article), you are eternally on an unstable distro. Not everyone likes that. CentOS replacements would benefit from both CentOS Stream and RHEL, while CentOS Stream would get benefits, but also more issues related to it being a "Fedora for RHEL". The improvements also don't mean Red Hat had to pull the rug under CentOS 7 and all its users. For that reason alone I'd ignore CentOS Stream but last time I installed CentOS because I choose to use it was more than a decade ago so I can't claim to be a user of that distribution or falsely claim that I'm going to switch to something else.
